Check, Baby, Check, Baby 1 2 3 4By PopCultureWhore

Trust Jay-Z to make Nascar look chic. In his video for “Show Me What You Got,” Jay-Z joins racecar drivers Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Danica Patrick for a race around Monaco in Very Fast Cars. We usually see these two pushing things like motor oil and Jimmy Dean sausage so a little spin around the French Riviera in Ferraris classes things up a bit. Later, Jay-Z jumps on some cigarette boats and makes waves in the water before retiring to a mountaintop villa for partying, poker and Cristal-free drinking. It’s not the catchiest song Jay has ever produced, but it does sample “Rumpshaker” so what’s not to love?
